You are right Uri a P90 is too powerful for a mere Palm III xe, in that case if
somebody has an old Pentium 200 MHz with Fritz 6e and match it against an iPaq
of 206 MHz with Chess Tiger 14.6, then we will have an even match. In the
previous Comparison only a Palm M505 of 33 MHz could compete against an old 386
P.C. of 33 MHz.
